Hello, I'll talk about Mumoro, that is currently at very early stage of development (it's my demonstrator for my thesis work)
http://github.com/Tristramg/mumoro > - can it's code be accessed for being modified in order to develop new > services? It's GPL, so theoretically yes. More realistically, what I want to achieve is : * Arbitrary cost functions (for example using traffic data for more accurate delays) * Arbitrary transport modes (it's actually the main goal of my thesis) > - can it be used with different maps (google maps, yahoo maps, osm, custom > maps, etc) or is it associated to one map type? Only OSM, but anything custom should be quite easy to add (as long as you provide a sqlite3 table with source, target, length for every arc) It's not possible to use gmaps or ymaps, as they only provide raster maps, nothing topological you can use. > - can it's routing core be modified for offering routes in public transport? YES! And it really should soon (again, main goal), but I got stuck in some other projects. I plan to support the google GTFS format, and probably the European Trident format > - is there any route planner around the world who uses any of this planners? No > - can they be used for developping a web service? It's also planned (actually it was made for a first prototype that I broke) > Any other additional information will be wellcome!! The difference with other route planners, it that I want to handle multimodal routes (combining different means of transportation like Graphserver, but with some theoretical differences), and to do multiobjective optimization (you simultaneously optimize different criterias like time, cost, CO2 emissions and present a bunch of equivalent solutions, instead of just one). On the other hand, the basic routing, will remain quite basic compared to existing solutions (no turn restrictions, no fine tuned heuristic to stay on main roads, etc.) I could need a kick in the ass to start coding again on that again to make it more usable. Say if you have any interest _______________________________________________ Routing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/routing
